The Department of Art at Brooklyn College is pleased to announce Thru Line the 2016 MFA Thesis Exhibition on view from Thursday, May 5 through Tuesday, May 10 at Moynihan Station, formerly the James A. Farley Post Office.

The exhibition, curated by Ambre Kelly and Andrew Gori of The They Co. and SPRING/BREAK Art Show, features work by 14 MFA candidates graduating from Brooklyn College this spring. Thru Line represents the culmination of two years of research and experimentation in the studio. It highlights the diverse styles, interests and varied methods of art making available to contemporary artists today. The included artwork ranges from painting, drawing, fibers, sculpture, video, ceramics and photography to work that blurs the lines between these. Although seemingly disparate, there is a consistent line of questioning present that wrestles with and explores diverse ideas of identity, culture, politics, memory and place.

The exhibition and opening reception are free, and open to the public.* Visitors will enter at the Post Office entrance on 8th Avenue near 31st Street. Gallery hours are Friday - Tuesday from 12-4pm.
